GENIUS HOUR PROJECT
Creating a short film by handAnna McCullough |
a hand drawn short film?
yes. a hand drawn short film. the short film i am creating is a fully hand drawn animated short film done by using the program animation and it will be done over the coarse of twelve weeks. the short film is called new and is about a girl with a large birthmark on her face who has to move to a new state and repeat the process of people accepting her. this story takes place in the eighties and displays the story of loving what makes you different.
What's the story?what "New" is really about"New" is about a girl, Juniper Greene, who moves from a small town in Florida to a whole new world in Indiana. Just like any new kid, she seems to struggle to find new friends. The only difference is she has a large burgundy birthmark on the left side of her face. This, of course, impacts how people treat her, which is like an alien. She is an outsider to this new place until Milo comes into her life. Milo is also different because he has Vitiligo, a disease where your skin has patches of different colors. Junipers story is made to show that you should love what makes you different, because what makes you different is what makes you, you.

ABOUT MEI have always loved art and I've always been interested in animation. 2D animation specifically. To see if I would enjoy the animation field, I practiced character design and tried hand drawn animation. I feel in love with animating and I would love to make animations for a big name company some day. right now I'll just focus on Genius Hour.
